Story by Pilar Stevensonnews@abc4.com LOGAN, Utah (ABC 4 News) – A woman has been charged with telephone harassment for sending her sister a text message.The text message to Anna Hansen from her sister Jennifer Willhite was meant to be a joke about Hansen’s cosmetic surgery, according to Willhite’s attorney. “I think people need to get a thicker skin… there’s no crime that has been committed, we just think it’s ridiculous quite frankly,” attorney Shannon Demler told ABC 4 on Thursday.

Drunken, naked man arrested after foot chase
June 25, 2010

A Howell man is facing charges after he allegedly urinated in public and then ran from police, who found him a short time later walking around wearing only shoes.

Howell police initially responded to a 10 p.m. Wednesday 911 call about a man urinating in public on Michigan Avenue in the Holiday Lane area.
Officers spotted the man, later identified as a 47-year-old Howell resident, urinating, but the suspect fled when police began approaching him, Chief George Basar said.
Officers found the Howell man a short time later near the Department of Public Works property near Dearborn and Marion streets. The man was naked except for his tennis shoes.
Basar said the man, who has a known alcohol problem, had been sober for 10 years before falling off the wagon, presumably as he tries to handle a divorce.
Basar said the a preliminary breath test indicated the man’s blood-alcohol level was at 0.19, which is more than two times the legal limit had the man been driving a vehicle.
Police arrested the man, who was lodged in the Livingston County Jail after treatment at Saint Joseph Mercy Livingston Hospital

Anger counselor who pulled out gun gets jail

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) - A former priest and anger-management counselor who pulled a gun in a traffic dispute on two men who happened to be U.S. Marshals has been sentenced to a year in prison. Fifty-seven-year-old Jose Luis Avila of Annandale pleaded guilty earlier this year in U.S. District Court to assaulting a federal officer.
In January, Avila was driving by the marshals near his home. He honked his horn because he believed they were standing in the road. When he thought one of the marshals made an obscene gesture at him, he pulled out a loaded handgun.
The 12-month sentence was in line with what prosecutors had sought. Defense lawyers wanted probation or time served; Avila has been jailed since January.
Avila has also been ordered to undergo anger management.

To ease the crowds entering the Texas Capitol building in Austin, officials recently opened an "express" line, bypassing most security precautions, for selected visitors and personnel. Obviously, members of the legislature use the express line, along with Capitol employees presenting ID. A third category of favored visitors: anyone with a Texas concealed-weapons carry permit. The Houston Chronicle reported in June that the lobbyists frustrated with the long security lines have been applying for concealed-weapons permits even if they expect never to touch a firearm.

Though he reportedly hacks more frequently lately, 2-year-old Ardi Rizal of Banyuasin, Indonesia, continues to smoke two packs of cigarettes a day, according to a May dispatch in London's Daily Mail and other news reports. Local officials offered Ardi's parents a new car if they convinced him to quit, but the mother warned that her son throws massive, head-banging tantrums if deprived of his smokes, and his fisherman father, noting Ardi's generous girth, says the kid looks fine to him. (Unfortunately for the parents, Ardi prefers only a certain high-end brand, which costs the equivalent of about $2.75 a pack.) [Daily Mail, 5-26-10]
